He couldn't figure out what was strange, and found that the reactions of Su Yingtao and the four others were suddenly abnormal.
Zhang Manqu over there had already responded to Yu Qing's question, "I'm afraid that's the case for the time being." He seemed a little embarrassed to reply to Yu Qing's words, and looked at Xu Fei to resolve, "Brother Xu, Zhang Bang
How will you be doing in the future?"
"Uh..." Xu Fei really didn't know how to answer for a while.
Zhong'er acted as if he hadn't heard anything and continued to add water to everyone.
A smile twitched at the corners of Yu Qing's lips, but he wanted to see how Xu Fei, who knew the answer in advance, would answer.
He was not interested in Xu Fei's departure or stay. He could sit down and chat with a few people like this, and he even did not hesitate to talk about the richest man in the capital, just to know the whereabouts of Su Yingtao and Zhan Muchun.
There was no way, these people had such a deep impression on him that Ashheng couldn't show up in front of them at all.
After the test, he will find a way to make a few people disappear from this world.
The matter was caused by his failure to handle it well. He couldn't leave such a big hidden danger to Ash Heng. He had to wipe this butt clean.
As for Xu Fei, he has a clue. After the demon world came out, he also told lies to deceive Lizhou and Sinan Mansion. In addition, he asked for thousands of taels of silver. He should be able to introduce him to Ashheng in the future.
"We haven't decided yet. We'll see what happens." Xu Fei was vague.
After a while, everyone's conversation returned to the topic of the examination. Yu Qing's goal had been achieved, so he stopped talking. When everyone asked him again, he waved his hands and said he had forgotten it.
Poor excuse, no cover up at all, just so straightforward.
Seeing him like this, everyone stopped asking questions and continued talking about themselves.
Yu Qing listened obediently and waited for Xu Fei to pay.
Lunch time was coming soon, so Xu Fei naturally invited everyone to have dinner at Cao Mansion. However, Yu Qing was really impatient to listen to these people's chatter and didn't want to wait any longer. He made an excuse and agreed that he had to go back to his 'uncle's house'.
Then he hinted to Xu Fei, "Can I give you the receipt now?" He reached out and reached into his sleeve to take it out.
Xu Fei pressed his hand, asked the others to wait, and took Yu Qing away first.
In the end, Yu Qing got his wish and received four thousand taels of silver notes from Cao's accountant. After receiving the money, he was also very trustworthy and returned the IOU neatly.
The matter finally came to an end, and Xu Fei breathed a sigh of relief. When he walked out of the accounting room, he couldn't help but ask, "In your uncle's family, is Mr. Zhong really the richest man in the capital?"
He was a little confused as to how the nephew of the richest man in the capital could be so virtuous.
Looking at the grandeur of the Cao Mansion, Yu Qing knew that there were some things that could not be hidden here, and he admitted honestly: "No, don't you see that those people are snobbish? If I don't pull some stunts, I'm afraid they will be rude to me. After all, this is
It's your family, I'm afraid it will make things difficult for you. I'm just doing it for your own good, so I just smooth things over." He didn't hide that he was lying, and added, "Of course, if you like to see their reaction after knowing the truth, wait.
You can tell them after I'm gone."
He wasn't afraid that Su Yingtao and others would know the truth, so what if they did? If he teased them, he could get some courtesy, but if he didn't, there would be nothing. Anyway, he wouldn't feel embarrassed.
Xu Fei was speechless. He exposed it in person and embarrassed a few people. It was almost as if he had a mental illness.
After being reminded by Yu Qing, he did not dare to speak nonsense.
After dumbfounding, he again politely invited Yu Qing to stay for dinner.
Yu Qing also refused again. He first found Chong'er and took back the fire cricket, and then expressed his desire to meet Xu Fei's uncle.
Xu Fei shook his head: "My uncle is almost never at home during the day. He is mostly out socializing. What did you see him doing?"
Yu Qing gestured to the jar with fire crickets in his hand, "You know the origin of this thing clearly. It is something that even Youya wants to get. The rich water does not go to other people's fields. Instead of selling it to others, it is better to sell it to yourself."
Man, help me ask your uncle if he is interested. The price agreed before will remain unchanged, just ten thousand taels!"
Xu Fei wanted to ask him, who is one of your own? However, there are some words that he can only keep in his heart, "I appreciate Brother Shiheng's kindness. Our family really doesn't need it, so you should find another buyer."
If it were other sellers and he didn't look at the price, he might have bought the fresh and rare ones from Tuhuo Cricket. But the seller was Yu Qing, and he was inexplicably repulsed. It felt like he didn't want it even if it was given to him for free.
Yu Qing refused to give up easily, "Forget it, for the sake of our friendship, how about eight thousand taels?"
Xu Fei said helplessly: "Brother Shiheng, you don't know what kind of existence Youya is. No one can figure out what Youya wants this thing for. No one knows whether it is an advantage or a disadvantage to keep this thing in your hands. I
When ordinary people really don't dare to mess with it easily, and you can't buy something that is inexplicable and may cause trouble just for the sake of novelty, you should find another buyer, our family really doesn't dare to touch it."
At this point, Yu Qing could no longer force himself and could only say goodbye.
After leaving Cao's mansion, he got on the carriage. The carriage drove away, and Yu Qing's carriage shook slightly.
He picked up the metal can with fire crickets and looked at it, "Oh!" He sighed, and suddenly realized that this thing was not easy to sell.
It was Xu Fei's words that reminded him that things related to Youya made his heart tremble when he heard them. Rich people couldn't figure out what was going on and would not dare to buy them easily.
But the problem is, if he doesn't mention anything about Youya and just sells it as an ordinary rare item, it seems that he can't sell it at a high price, and he's not willing to sell it at a low price. It has to be worth at least a thousand taels to be able to live in it.
An adventure in the ancient barrow wasteland?
However, even if you sell it for a thousand taels, you still have to find a wealthy family. Not many ordinary people can afford a thousand taels of silver, so how can they spend a thousand taels to buy this thing.
Even if it's five hundred taels or three hundred taels, it's still the same.
His bottom line is three hundred taels. If it is less than this amount, it is better to raise it by yourself. Although it is a bit troublesome to kill animals and feed bones every three days in the mountains, at least it can save some firewood for boiling water.
Thinking of this, I felt that the most indispensable thing in the mountains was firewood for boiling water. It saves the trouble of boiling water but adds the trouble of making bones.
The biggest problem is, who knows how long this thing can live? Most bugs don't live long. If it's like some ordinary bugs and dies in less than a year, then... He silently lowered the bottom line of the price. Really
If not, I’ll sell it for a hundred taels!
The more I thought about it, the more troubled I became, so I gave it up and put down the fire cricket to find something happy to do. I took out the banknote I just got and counted it happily again.
No more, no less, and earned another four thousand taels. I couldn't help but kiss him, and then I stuffed it back into my arms comfortably, opened the curtains and looked out the window at the capital city.
Kill people, make money, quit the world of mortals, go back to the mountains to meditate, and occasionally think about beauties. This was his plan after participating in the examination. It is his responsibility to put Linglong Temple in order, and then I will be the biggest in Linglong Temple.
Be a carefree leader and enjoy the most admiring looks from the young girls in Jiupo Village...
"Sir, Liu Mansion has arrived."
The carriage stopped at the door of a mansion. Yu Qing got out of the carriage and went to the door in person, looking for Mr. Xi Ming, the teacher of the Liu Mansion.
As a result, the Liu Mansion informed that Mr. Ming had taken leave of absence to help the Zhong Mansion's son take part in the examination and had never come back.
Yu Qing was surprised, so he asked where Mr. Ming lived, and then searched around again.
He had nothing else to do with Mr. Ming, just like Xu Fei and others discussed the test questions. It is estimated that the news about the test questions will soon spread, and will also reach Mr. Ming’s ears. I think Mr. Ming will be shocked when he hears the test questions.
You will realize that he has mastered the test questions in advance.
He had already planned it and would talk to Mr. Ming afterwards to avoid uncontrollable situations.
However, when we found Mr. Ming's house, there were only two beauties in the small courtyard house, and Mr. Ming was not there.
The two beauties were paid by the Liu Mansion and the Zhong Mansion to serve Mr. Ming. According to them, Mr. Ming came back on the day of the test, packed some things and left the capital, saying he wanted to go out for a walk.
I have never seen him again, and I don’t know where he went or when he will come back.
Yu Qing was dumbfounded, where could he find this?
I had no choice but to leave with a knot in my heart, worried that Mr. Ming would not be able to think of filing a complaint.
There was a situation that might cause problems, so he was so worried that he gave up the idea of looking for the fire cricket seller for a while, and started to inquire about the whereabouts of Mr. Ming...
Gongyuan is still heavily guarded. It seems quiet on the surface, but the busy situation inside makes many people worried about it.
After the candidates came out, the Gongyuan was tightly sealed again. The candidates' papers could not be left, and the relevant personnel sent by the imperial court to preside over the examination were not allowed to leave. In other words, if the candidates left, the relevant officials would continue to be detained for a period of time until
Until the results of all exam papers are announced!
It is not an easy task to judge all tens of thousands of papers in a short period of time, and the pressure on the paper judges is not small.
The examination room is divided into four rooms. Each room has an examiner. Each examiner is also called the president of the examination. The four examination questions are assigned by the four examiners. The questions are classified and judged accordingly. Each room is of the same type.
Reading the same question content too much will make you somewhat numb. You can almost tell at a glance whether the content of the test paper is good or bad. Answers that are not outstanding can easily be dismissed.
In the essay room, a group of judges were reading papers. One of them, a slightly fat judge, pulled out the next paper in order. His expression, which had been numb after sitting for a long time, suddenly moved slightly. His eyes became brighter, and there were good handwriting on the paper.
Let him wake up a little bit.
The calligraphy is good but the writing is not good? He muttered in his mind and looked at the paper from the beginning.
As he watched, he slowly straightened up his waist, which was already a little hunched over. He put one elbow on the table to support his chin, and the five fingers of the other hand tapped gently and rhythmically on the table. From time to time, a look of fascination appeared in his expression.
My thoughts and feelings were obviously guided by the content on the paper, and I was mentally weighing the pros and cons with it.
When I saw the end, I closed my hands and leaned back, holding my stomach with both hands. My thumbs moved a lot, and I pursed my lips tightly, with a look of confusion on my face.
In the end, he still didn't dare to judge the paper easily. He stood up, took the paper and walked towards the president of Fu Lun Room.
